"Boss, can I borrow this iron rod for a moment? I’ll return it to you immediately."

Xiao Yi walked straight to a store that was being renovated, picked up an iron rod that seemed sturdy, and said to the owner beside him. Without waiting for the owner to respond, he grabbed the rod and headed back into the crowd.

There’s going to be a good show!

Seeing Xiao Yi not leaving, but instead returning with an iron rod and a cold smirk on his face, the surrounding onlookers were electrified, instinctively feeling that a big drama was about to unfold.

What!

Whoosh!

The men also instantly noticed Xiao Yi returning with the iron rod, and their expressions changed in a flash. Each of their faces showed disbelief, as if they couldn’t comprehend that Xiao Yi would really dare to confront them like this.

Watching Xiao Yi approach step by step, a chill rose from within their hearts, and they began to back away.

"Kid, what do you think you’re doing!"

"Kid, I warn you, you’d better not mess around!"

"Kid, I warn you, I know Brother Hei from East River District! If you offend us, you definitely won’t be able to hang around here anymore!"

"......"

The men, watching Xiao Yi draw nearer with murderous intent, began to tremble, retreating step by step and repeatedly shouting warnings at Xiao Yi.

Director Li!

Brother Hei!

Hearing the names they were mentioning, the faces of the onlookers changed on the spot.

They all knew beforehand that these guys weren’t simple characters, definitely tough figures not to be messed with, but they hadn’t anticipated how big a deal they actually were!

Offending them would undoubtedly be a dead end.

Everyone’s heart secretly heaved a sigh of relief, thankful they hadn’t rashly stepped forward to speak up for Li Xiaomei. Earlier, they had felt somewhat guilty about Li Xiaomei, but at this moment, that guilt completely vanished.

Even Li Xiaomei’s complexion changed in an instant, her legs going weak. If it weren’t for Wang Qingqing’s support, she would have nearly collapsed to the ground.

She had never imagined these people had such significant backing.

The name Brother Hei filled her with deep fear and trepidation.

That name was all too terrifying; even though she had always been an upstanding citizen, it was a name she had heard often in the neighborhood and amongst the locals.

She never thought she would have offended such a terrifying group.

Seeing how the expressions of the people around them changed after they spoke, the confidence on the men’s faces regained some ground, and the earlier vanished courage started to swell again; they looked towards Xiao Yi with a smug expression, as if to say, how about that, now you know how scary we are.

Brother Hei?

Is he impressive?

A sneer crept onto Xiao Yi’s lips, as he didn’t slow down but continued walking towards the group of men.

Wang Qingqing looked at Xiao Yi’s advancing steps, a flicker of worry crossing her eyes. She opened her mouth, wanting to call out to Xiao Yi, but when she saw her pale-faced second aunt and the smug look on the men’s faces, the words she wanted to say stopped short.

For the first time, a thought completely contrary to her unwavering belief in the law arose in her heart—a savage wish that these bastards needed a harsh lesson!

If Xiao Yi really gets into trouble, I’ll just suffer with him!

Wang Qingqing’s delicate white hand was secretly clenched tight beneath her.

"You... what do you want to do!"

"You... I’m telling you... don’t mess around!"

"......"

These men never expected that after hearing their introduction and the identities of those two people, Xiao Yi would still dare to rush at them. Instantly, their expressions changed, as they finally realized that the seemingly skinny guy in front of them was truly a reckless fool, an idiot, brainless, simply a crazy bastard who didn’t care about their threats at all. In their eyes emerged a look of sheer terror.

No matter how awesome they were, or how awesome the people they knew, or connections they had, at this moment, all of that was utterly useless fluff. Facing Xiao Yi’s iron rod, those awesome relationships and impressive figures couldn’t block it for them.

Looking at the crowd that had been so arrogantly loud before, who were now fearfully retreating, their foreheads beading with sweat, eyes filled with fear, Xiao Yi’s lips curled with an ironic sneer, "Don’t worry guys, I’m in a good mood today, don’t feel like beating up anyone, and I also don’t want my friend to witness a bloody scene."

After saying that, he walked straight through the four men and directly to a BMW parked in front, pointing at the car, "You said just now that my friend scratched your car, right?"

"No... it wasn’t..."

Several of them, upon hearing that Xiao Yi was not going to smash them with the iron rod and feeling like they’d dodged a bullet, relaxed slightly. But seeing Xiao Yi standing in front of the car, their faces couldn’t help but show a bit of uncertainty, not knowing what he really wanted to do. After a while, the man standing at the forefront, with a trembling voice, cautiously said to Xiao Yi, "It was a... misunderstanding... from before..."

"Misunderstanding? But what I heard just now didn’t seem to be the case."

An ironic smile surfaced on Xiao Yi’s lips.

"Yes... yes... we were wrong, let’s just leave it at that!"

The potbellied man, looking at Xiao Yi who stood in front of the car, sweat started dripping down his forehead, the alcohol effect from before nearly completely vanished in a moment, "We’ll... leave right now, right away!"

After realizing that Xiao Yi was a reckless young man who didn’t care about his life, he was completely terrified; he couldn’t care less about his earlier plan to make a quick buck, nor about Wang Qingqing, who looked as beautiful as a fairy. It’s best to run away in such situations, as the saying goes: When you keep the green hills, you won’t fear a shortage of firewood. His life was precious, and it was definitely not worth losing it over such a trifling matter. Even if someone sought revenge for him later and dealt with this guy, it wouldn’t be worth it. His own precious life couldn’t possibly compare to that of this brat.

Watching this dramatically changing scene on the field, the onlookers around them couldn’t help but feel a surge of exhilarating pleasure.

It’s said these days, good guys fear bad guys, bad guys fear worse guys, worse guys fear the vicious ones and the vicious ones fear those who are ruthless. It seems that’s really how it is!

How awesome were these guys just before, and now, they are being scared like grandchildren by a kid in his twenties!

People were secretly sighing with these thoughts in their hearts.

"So you bully my friend and think you can just walk away with a simple ’misunderstanding’?"

Contempt flashed in Xiao Yi’s eyes, a disdainful expression surfaced, and his face suddenly turned cold, his eyes emitting an icy gleam, "In this world, there’s no such thing as a free lunch! You might think it’s over, but I don’t think so!"

"This kid is too awesome!"

"What ’awesome’? He’s just too ignorant! They said they’re letting it go, why does he have to offend them to death?"

"Exactly, after all, he’s still young, not knowing when to advance or retreat. These people are not so easy to mess with..."

"......"

Hearing Xiao Yi’s words, the people were completely astounded, and discussions erupted among them.

Li Xiaomei was also becoming extremely anxious in her heart. She wanted to call out to Xiao Yi, to say something to him, but because she was so scared just now, she was totally weakened, and due to the rush of her feelings, she opened her mouth to speak but couldn’t make a sound.

"Friend... what exactly do you want!"

The faces of the men also changed, looking at Xiao Yi who suddenly became chilling, filled with killing intent, they said with fearful faces, "Everything is negotiable, please don’t be impulsive."
